Ah I see.

Yes northern mate, okay cool that’s great. And ah okay is that often the case, that you need to travel on tpe? :)

Yeah I got in touch with hr and was told I’d be given a pass before I start. So thanks for the couple of you who gave correct advise haha.

start my training in January for conductor role, and it requires quite a lot of travelling for me. Should I expect to receive my staff rail card before I start training for that purpose? :)

Thanks, think I’ve got it all sorted.

I’ll give hr a call in the morning, it will take me well over an hour each way, commuting to Newcastle so hoping there’s something available. Thanks!

Does anybody know what northern offer, in terms of accommodation for people who live far away from there training locations. And also how I would go about organising somewhere to stay?

Think you get a medical every 10 years, so I’m assuming you’ll just have to be able to keep up to standard in ten years haha

Same as me! You gunna be in Leeds?

Okay Mate and I believe it’s leeds they told me in the interview but could be Newcastle, there both the same distance from me

I’ve just passed my medical after being given my start date for jan, how long after ur medical we’re you sent ur contract? :)

How come you done your medical before you got your start date? Opposite to me

Hi, How long have you been in the holding pool? I received an email a few weeks back now mate, telling me my start date and that I need to pass a medical before my start date.

Yeah cool! Look forward to it

Thanks! No I didn’t have to go through that procedure and congratulations too you aswell you were waiting long enough lol
